The Overall Quality Of Domestic Cotton Is Improved.

In recent years, the quality of imported cotton has frequently occurred in China.

According to the white paper released by the State General Administration of quality supervision, inspection and quarantine, the quality of imported cotton in China showed that the grade, length and strength of imported cotton in 2015 were higher than those of the same period last year.

China is the largest cotton producer, consumer and importer in the world.

Cotton production accounts for nearly 1/3 of world cotton output. In recent years, cotton sowing area has continuously decreased, but output still stands at more than 5 million 500 thousand tons.

According to Tang Shurong, a researcher at the Cotton Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the cotton quality supervision and testing center of the Ministry of agriculture,

In recent years, high quality cotton made in China can meet the cotton demand of domestic textile enterprises.

With China's emphasis on improving cotton quality, cotton seed producing areas such as Xinjiang have been improved from seed selection, cultivation mode, cotton processing and pportation. In recent years, the internal quality of domestic cotton has been improved.

High quality cotton resources produced in Xinjiang and other areas have also become some high-end products.

The target of choice.

According to statistics, the overall average rate of non conformity was 14.72%, an increase of 1.77 percentage points compared with the same period in 2014 (12.95%), grade reduction from 0.5 to 4, and 121 batches of imported cotton down to 100%.

The overall average rate of non conformity was 6.65%, an increase of 2.34 percentage points compared with the same period in 2014 (4.31%) and a decrease of 100% in 23 batches of imported cotton.

The overall non conformity rate of micron value was 3.19%, which was 0.97 percentage points lower than that in the same period (4.16%) in 2014, and 18 batches.

The rate of incorrect use of micron was 100%.

The overall non conformity rate of fiber strength was 4.84%, an increase of 0.98 percentage points compared with the same period in 2014 (3.86%), and that of the 19 batches of imported cotton was 100%.

In terms of import weight, the problem of short weight is still outstanding.

It was found that 84.47% of the batches were short weight and the average short weight rate was 0.80%.

In 2015, with the continuous high domestic stocks, China's cotton imports still amounted to 1 million 760 thousand tons. The main source of imports included the world cotton producing countries and regions such as the United States, India, Australia, Uzbekistan, Brazil and Africa.

Compared with domestic cotton, especially in the implementation of the cotton target price policy, imported cotton has a certain price advantage, which is also the main reason for high cotton imports and domestic cotton inventories in recent years.

The influx of imported cotton and the quality of the products are worrying. It not only affects the interests of China's cotton spinning enterprises, but also impacts China's cotton market order. It also has a significant negative impact on China's cotton production and cotton farmers' interests.

Experts suggest that we should further strengthen the inspection and management of imported cotton quality and safeguard the legitimate interests of domestic industries.
